The Department of Ecosystem Science and Sustainability at Colorado State University is seeking Assistant Professor in Water Quality. We seek applications from candidates who have expertise in water quality laboratory analyses, field sampling techniques, water quality regulations, and the effects of land use and land management on water quality. Teaching expectations include lecture and lab-based undergraduate courses in land use and water quality. This position teaches WR418 and WR419 (Land Use and Water Quality and Water Quality Lab) and contributes to other undergraduate and graduate courses in Watershed Science and Ecosystem Science and Sustainability. This position advises undergraduate and graduate students in the department, conducts research related to water quality and contributes to service and outreach activities.

The Ecosystem Science and Sustainability department is closely associated with the Natural Resource Ecology Laboratory. We are recognized for interdisciplinary research in ecosystem function and ecosystem sustainability, such as sustainability of water, food, and energy systems from technological, social-ecological, and modeling perspectives.
